In the PPR email, I have been asked to send two pictures along with my passport. Can I use the same photo that I sent with PR application? (This photo was taken in July 2013).

I would go & click 2 new pics as CIC require photos should not be more than 6 months old

Hmm okay. Another confusion I have is about dimensions of these photos.

The email asks to send "passport size photos".

Canadian passport size is :
50 mm wide X 70 mm high (2 inches wide X 2 3/4 inches long) and sized so the height of the face measures between 31 mm (1 1/4 inches) and 36 mm (1 7/16 inches) from chin to crown of head (natural top of head)

But some people say we should send 35 mm* 45 mm ( the same size sent originally with the PR application ).

What should I do?

agree with akapoor. The small one not the "passport size photo". CIC makes trouble for us. To avoid delay, I submitted both small one and passport size photo one just because I got same confusion as you. Actually, the small one was used on the COPR.

it wasted me $45 for my family and myself.
